  1. As the year draws to a close, the Brixton Blood Donor Centre is calling on our community to come together and make a life-changing difference. Blood donations drop during the winter months, yet the need remains constant – and urgent. One hour of your time could save up to three lives, making it one of the most meaningful gifts you can give this festive season.

  2. Twenty-seven autistic young people from three Lambeth schools have created a powerful documentary, ‘Autism: A Unique Life’, to raise awareness of autism, challenge stereotypes and share their lived experiences.
